Having said that if Gale should find a return to form and fitness of his early Castleford days and Reynolds can also turn the clock back then maybe you'll have me eating my words.

More likely you will come to realise that for all his faults you have lost your main matchwinner in Marc Sneyd.


That's a rather simplistic view to take as Sneyd may have dropped the odd drop goal or 2 to win us a game but his defence was poor. inevitablly conceding tries as well to lose games but that can be said of all players, the sum of a team should be greater than it's parts and is so a collective effort, not down to just one player or play.

What Sneyd did do through no fault of his own is make us 1 dimensional and predictable and Hodgson has taken action to rectify this.
We will be a different proposition. I don't think we'll miss Sneyd as we're going in a different direction but our season all depends on the fitness of our halves, who can be described as sicknotes at best.

Sneyd stopped being our match winner last season, i think the club may have just discovered when to release a player at the correct time.

I can’t see anything better than last season as Gale and Reynolds will barely play together
Ben Mac will likely be still learning his trade, so not expecting much there.
BH won’t play Jake at 6 unlike Wayne Bennett did for England a while back.
Once we lose a couple the heads will go down again

shame - but that’s how I see it

Whilst there is a possibility that both Gale and Reynolds may miss games I do feel strangely confident that they'll play far more games than they'll miss (and together).
The added benefit of Gale is his leadership on/off the field which again will be a big plus. As I mentioned on a previous post so many times we have signed players come with very good injury records but end up hardly playing through injury and vice versa so hopefully Gale will remain pretty fit. As for Reynolds his knee injury could and would have happened to any player when ending up it the position he did in that tackle, the other injuries I think he was rushed back with his hamstring due to lack of creativity in the side and his absence through Covid was just one of those things.
Hopefully this season we will not be so reliant on one player and have more structures in place to not only break opposing teams down but also give them more to think about in defence other than waiting for the kick to the corner.






I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

Disappointed when sneyd left. But if Gale and Reynolds keep fit it will bring us another dimension to our attack. Looking forward to the new season.

Sadly Gale and Reynolds will only play 8 matches together and Ben Mac will be busy being steady and uninspiring

I’m not being negative just totally realistic

Jake should be 6 and the sooner the better

Your clairvoyance is about as sound as your 9 game barometer.
Can you send me the Lotto numbers as well, please.
